For those readers who lusted after the Superman laptop we featured on mobilised recently, here's Lenovo's take on merchandising the notebook computer using themed decals.

The Chinese manufacturer plans to release a Coca Cola 2008 Olympics laptop in support of the up-coming 2008 Olympic Games (which in case you've been in a coma will be held in Beijing the year after next).

The F20 will be resplendent in Coke red apparel and will feature the official (?) Olympics symbol on the top.

The device itself is a 12.1-inch widescreen laptop powered by an Intel Pentium M 778 processor running at 1.66MHz.

Likely to only be of interest in China where it will be released, the laptop is priced around US$1700.

Other specs reportedly include;

• Intel M778 processor, 1.66GHz
• Intel 915GMS chipset with GMA900 display chip
• 12.1 inch wide screen monitor
• 512MB DDR2 memory
• 80GB hard disk
• External Combo drive
• WiFi, Bluetooh, 56K modem, and 100Mbps ethernet port
• Build in 1.5W stereo speaker
• 3 USB ports, 1 IEEE1394 port
• All-in-one memory card reader
• Dual batteries for 8.5 hours usage
• Weight: 1.4KG
